Good Evening,

    While most were reporting hot and some humid a couple of us were 
getting a day of ocean breeze.  I have been seeing smoke in the 
satellite images across the US from the Western forest fires. Today I 
got a report from North Dakota about the smoke.  Over the weekend the 
smoke from the California fires had gotten cleared out by the cool 
front.  But in the last few hours the smoke from the fires in Washington 
has returned.  There are fires in both Washington and California with 
smaller fires in Oregon.  The river systems route the smoke out to the 
ocean but they are not very efficient at doing so.  The last report I 
read had the Northern California fires slowing with 60% containment.  
The fires farther south have yet to be tamed.  Those in Washington and 
Oregon are not as large and may be controlled this week.  A few days of 
steady rain would help the whole West Coast cool off and dampen those 
fires.  I am tired of coughing, sneezing, and crying.
